Rajinikanth praises Manoj Bajpayee

Manoj Bajpayee, who is still getting accolades for his performances in the Gangs of Wasseypur series and Chakravyuh, is a happy man.

However, he is even happier because on a recent flight, he bumped into Tamil icon Rajinikanth who spoke to him at length on how he loved him in Gangs of Wasseypur.

Like most people, Manoj was floored by Rajini's humble demeanour.

Recalling the moment, he says, "When Rajini Sir pays you a compliment you value it for two reasons. One, because it is coming from Rajini Sir. And two, because he is so sincere in his praise. He will tell you minor details of your performance, etc making the compliment so sincere and genuine."
